Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a compound represented by one of formulas 1-1 to 1-3, to a method for preparing such a compound, to an electronic device comprising one or more such compounds, and to the use of such compounds in an electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] In the context of this application, "electronic device" should be understood to refer to so-called organic electronic devices that contain organic semiconductor materials as functional materials. More specifically, these should be understood to refer to OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Devices). The term OLED should be understood to refer to an electronic device having one or more layers containing organic compounds and emitting light when a voltage is applied. The general principles of the construction and function of OLEDs are known to those skilled in the art.
[0003] There is great interest in improving performance data in electronic devices, especially OLEDs. Currently, no completely satisfactory solution has been found in these areas.
[0004] The light-emitting layer and the hole-transporting layer have a significant impact on the performance data of electronic devices. Novel compounds are being sought for these layers, particularly hole-transporting compounds and compounds that can serve as hole-transporting matrix materials in the light-emitting layer, especially for phosphorescent light-emitting devices. To this end, compounds with high glass transition temperatures, high stability, and high hole conductivity are being sought. High stability of the compounds is a prerequisite for achieving long lifetimes in electronic devices. Furthermore, there is a need to find compounds that, when used in electronic devices, lead to improvements in device performance data, particularly high efficiency, long lifetime, and low operating voltage.
[0005] In the prior art, fluoreneamine is known as a hole transport material and hole transport matrix material for electronic devices. However, there is still room for improvement in the aforementioned properties.
[0006] CN 115109018 A describes a fluorene derivative with two amine groups substituted at the 1 and 4 positions as a hole transport material.
[0007] CN 112679534 A describes a fluorene derivative as an intermediate compound, in which two carbazole groups are substituted at the 1 and 3 positions and an amine is substituted at the 6 position.
[0008] CN 113387818 A describes a fluorene derivative with diamine substitution at the 1,2 positions as an electronic component.
[0009] Aromatic amines of the following formula have been found to have excellent suitability for use in electronic devices, characterized by specific combinations of substituent groups and specific substitution positions on the fluorene ring. They are particularly suitable for use in OLEDs, and even more particularly suitable therein as hole transport materials and as hole transport matrix materials, especially as hole transport matrix materials for phosphorescent emitters. These compounds result in high lifetime, high efficiency, and low operating voltage in the devices. Preferably, the discovered compounds have high glass transition temperatures, high stability, low sublimation temperatures, good solubility, good synthetic accessibility, and high hole conductivity.

The luminescent layer may be a fluorescent luminescent layer or a phosphorescent luminescent layer. The luminescent layer is preferably a blue fluorescent layer or a green phosphorescent layer.

This can be achieved, for example, by co-evaporation of the p-type dopant and the hole transport material matrix. The p-type dopant is preferably present in the p-type doped layer at a ratio of 1% to 10%.
[0091] Preferred p-type dopants include, in particular, the following compounds:

When the compound is present in the hole injection layer or hole transport layer, the compound is preferably p-type doped, meaning that the compound is in a form mixed with the p-type dopant as described above in the layer.
[0094] A compound represented by one of formulas 1-1 to 1-3 is preferably present in the electron blocking layer. In this case, the compound is preferably not p-type doped.

[0098] The luminescent layer of an organic electroluminescent device may also comprise a system containing multiple matrix materials (a mixed matrix system) and / or multiple luminescent compounds. In this case, the luminescent compounds are typically those compounds present in a smaller proportion of the system, while the matrix materials are those compounds present in a larger proportion. However, in some cases, the proportion of a single matrix material in the system may be less than the proportion of a single luminescent compound.

The two different matrix materials can be present in a ratio of 1:50 to 1:1, preferably 1:20 to 1:1, more preferably 1:10 to 1:1, and most preferably 1:4 to 1:1.
